Portfolio Zooms Ahead!!!!!

Today saw broad-based gains across the stock, commodity, and currency markets.  Our portfolio gained massively.  Coffee and Silver were up very strongly.  Soybeans rose and our new long position benefited.  Corn followed Soybeans up practically all night, then suddenly, Corn reversed and finished much weaker, making our short position profitable.  Lumber, also a misfit today, fell the limit, and our short position benefited.  Our British Pound was higher as well.  We lost money on our new short New Zealand Dollar position.  The ETF will exit tomorrow morning.

No new signals for tomorrow.  Best of luck!
